To reinforce and improve the soft ground under a breakwater while using materials efficiently, the replacement ratio and leaving periods of surcharge load are optimized probabilistically. The results of Bayesian updating of the random variables using prior information decrease uncertainty by up to 39.8%, and using prior information with more samples results in a sharp decrease in uncertainty. Replacement ratios of 15%-40% are analyzed using First Order Reliability Method and Monte Carlo simulation to optimize the replacement ratio. The results show that replacement ratios of 20% and 25% are acceptable at the column jet grouting area and the granular compaction pile area, respectively. Life cycle costs are also compared to optimize the replacement ratios within allowable ranges. The results show that a range of 20%-30% is the most economical during the total life cycle. This means that initial construction cost, maintenance cost and failure loss cost are minimized during total life cycle. Probabilistic analysis for leaving periods of shows that three months acceptable. Design optimization with respect to life cycle cost is important to minimize maintenance costs and retain the performance of the structures for the required period. Therefore, more case studies that consider the maintenance costs of soil structures are necessary to establish relevant design codes.

Using two large coast guard ships at sea, we created four encounter situations ($000^{\circ}$, $045^{\circ}$, $090^{\circ}$, $135^{\circ}$) with high possibility of collision, from 3 NM up to 0.25 NM. As relative distance was gradually decreased, the subjects were measured at 0.25 NM intervals and perceived ship collision risk (PSCR) was determined by looking at the opponent ship. Characteristics were statistically analyzed using the obtained data. The purpose of this study was to analyze the characteristics of collision risk values obtained from twelve intervals, from 3 NM to 0.25 NM relative to encounter situations by curve fitting with appropriate polynomials, to determine the distance from which the change in perceived collision risk is greatest. As a result, an optimal regression equation for each distance interval was derived from each analysis direction. The greatest variation in average collision risk value was over the range 1.25 ~ 1 NM, and the collision risk value was largest at 1 NM. The maximum change in perceived collision risk was at 1 NM. These results can contribute to preventive guidelines to minimize human error in close proximity situations with a high probability of ship collision.

For the purpose of early diagnosis of the breast cancer, the attention on the screening mammography has been increasing-with supply of digital mammography day by day. Image quality is decided by target materials and filter combinations. Optimized selection by a glandular density and a thickness is needed, because these combinations change x-ray spectrum and effect to image quality. The purpose of this study is to find out optimized target and filter combinations through the evaluation of quantitative image quality and to suggest means which minimize patient dose through MCNPX. In results, spatial frequency resolution evaluation which is quantitative image quality evaluation method, MTF, NPS, DQE shows that we have to select Mo/Mo combinations or Mo/Rh combinations when compressed breast is thin. but in case of that when compressed breast is thick, we have to select Rh/Rh combinations or W /Rh combinations. In a comprehensive evaluation, W!Rh combinations which are not used in thin breasts in practice was superior to all image quality evaluation. This result is somewhat different-with clinical examination results. Secondary end point was organ dose evaluation, radiation dose of opposite breast was approximately 47 ~73% effectiveness when selecting standard breast. In conculsion, the most important point is that we have to select the optimal combinations-with considering dose evaluation and various thickness.

This paper presents the research results of a light weight through topology optimization and structural safety evaluation through structural analysis of a pressure system structure installed in an off-shore plant. Conducting a structure design according to the wind load and the dynamic load at sea in addition to a self-load and structure stability evaluation are very important for structures installed in off-shore plants. In this study, the wind and dynamic load conditions according to the DNV classification rule was applied to the analysis. The topology optimization method was applied to the structure to obtain a lightweight shape. Phase optimization analysis confirmed the stress concentration portion. Topology optimization analysis takes the shape by removing unnecessary elements in the design that have been designed to form a rib shape. Based on the analysis results about the light weight optimal shape, a safety evaluation through structural analysis and suitability of the shape was conducted. This study suggests a design and safety evaluation of an off-shore plant structure that is difficult for structural safety evaluations using an actual test.

The study of ecosystem assessment(ES) is based on land cover information, and primarily it is performed at the global scale. However, these results as data for decision making have a limitation at the aspects of range and scale to solve the regional issue. Although the Ministry of Environment provides available land cover data at the regional scale, it is also restricted in use due to the intrinsic limitation of on screen digitizing method and temporal and spatial difference. This study of objective is to generate UAV land cover map. In order to classify the imagery, we have performed resampling at 5m resolution using UAV imagery. The results of object-based image segmentation showed that scale 20 and merge 34 were the optimum weight values for UAV imagery. In the case of RapidEye imagery;we found that the weight values;scale 30 and merge 30 were the most appropriate at the level of land cover classes for sub-category. We generated land cover imagery using example-based classification method and analyzed the accuracy using stratified random sampling. The results show that the overall accuracies of RapidEye and UAV classification imagery are each 90% and 91%.

Considerable number of offshore platforms have been built in Korean shipyards ever since 1976. Unlike for the cases of building ships, however, negligible efforts have been made to establish planning methodology for building onshore platforms. Severe congestion has been shown in the processes of assemblying modules of platforms. The module which is the upper part of a platform is a steel structure accommodating various types of outfittings and machinaries. The production planned without proper consideration on allocating work loads by trade used to show severe interferences among trades of workers and resulted in delayed completion. In this paper, a method of planning module assembly in consideration of leveling work loads by trade is discussed. A system of planning has been formulated and tested on a exampled case of producing a mix of 72 modules. The test showed a possibility of saving 31% of manpower and trimming 11% of through put time.

본 연구에서는 국립해양조사원의 '해양2000호'를 통해 1996년과 1997년에 측정한 동해 지역의 중력자료에 대한 자료 처리를 하였다. 효과적인 자료처리를 위해 선상중력자료 처리에 필요한 각종 보정 절차와 문제점 등을 알아보았으며, 선상자료와 해면고도계자료의 비교 및 이를 통한 선상자료의 검증을 실시하였다. 선상중력자료는 측정과 처리 과정에 있어 여러 사항을 고려하여야 한다. 즉, 육상중력기점을 이용한 절대중력으로의 환산 문제, 선박 항해 위치의 부정확성에 기인하는 문제 및 중력계의 기계적 특성과 중력 측정이 이루어질 때의 해상 조건에 의한 영향 등으로 선상중력자료에 나타나는 여러 오차를 최소화하여야 한다. 선상중력자료로부터 각종 지구중력장 연구에 필요한 중력이상을 계산하기 위해 선상중력 측정시 기인되는 각종 요인의 오차를 고려한 효과적인 보정이 이루어져야 한다. 즉, 선상중력계의 기계변이 보정, 탐사선에 대한 위치 자료의 획득 및 필터링, 그리고 탐사선의 이동으로 인한 Eotvos 효과의 정확한 계산 및 보정이 필요하고, 선상중력계의 기계적 특성에 의해 나타나는 시간지연에 대한 보정도 필요하다. 또한 이러한 보정을 통해 계산한 중력 이상에서 각 교점의 오차를 보정하는 교정오차 보정도 실시하여야 한다. 특히, 탐사선의 이동으로 인한 지구자전 각속도의 상대적인 증감의 효과로 나타나는 Eotvos 효과의 영향은 선상중력자료의 정확도에 가장 큰 영향을 미친다. 이의 정확한 계산 및 보정을 위해서는 정확한 위치정보가 필요하며 본 연구에서는 이를 위해 GPS 항해정보에 대한 Kalman 필터를 실시하였고, Eotvos 효과에 대해 Savitzky-Golay 필터를 적용하여 최적의 Eotvos 보정을 시도하였다. 본 연구에서 계산된 동해지역의 중력이상에 대한 대력적인 범위는 경도 129° - 133°이고 위도 35° - 38.3° 부근이다. 이 지역에 대한 고도이상은 최소 -42.46 mGal에서 최고 161.13 mGal사이에 분포하며, 고도이상의 평균은 14.450 mGal이다. 또한 Bouguer 이상은 최소 -l5.09 mGal에서 최고 218.61 mGal이고 이의 평균은 82.681 mGal이다. 그리고 동해지역의 선상중력 측정지역에서 선상자료에 의한 중력이상과 Altimeter 자료에 의한 고도이상의 전반적인 윤곽은 비슷하면서도 일부 작은 이상의 차이가 나타났으며, 지형자료와 비교하여 보면 Altimeter에 의한 결과보다 선상측정에 의한 결과가 더욱 잘 일치하고 있어 본 연구에서 계산한 선상자료의 타당성을 알 수 있다. 고도이상의 차이는 최소 -25.94 mGal에서 최대 85.33 mGal의 차이를 보이며 차이의 평균은 3.517 mGal, RMS는 6.774 meal이다. 이는 비교적 큰 차이로 선상측정자료의 중요성과 필요성을 단적으로 나타내고 있다.

The rational polynomial coefficients(RPC) model is a generalized sensor model that is used as an alternative for the physical sensor model for IKONOS-2 and QuickBird. As the number of sensors increases along with greater complexity, and as the need for standard sensor model has become important, the applicability of the RPC model is also increasing. The RPC model can be substituted for all sensor models, such as the projective camera the linear pushbroom sensor and the SAR This paper is aimed at generating a RPC model from the physical sensor model of the KOMPSAT-1(Korean Multi-Purpose Satellite) and aerial photography. The KOMPSAT-1 collects $510{\sim}730nm$ panchromatic images with a ground sample distance (GSD) of 6.6m and a swath width of 17 km by pushbroom scanning. We generated the RPC from a physical sensor model of KOMPSAT-1 and aerial photography. The iterative least square solution based on Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm is used to estimate the RPC. In addition, data normalization and regularization are applied to improve the accuracy and minimize noise. And the accuracy of the test was evaluated based on the 2-D image coordinates. From this test, we were able to find that the RPC model is suitable for both KOMPSAT-1 and aerial photography.

In UHD high-speed video transmission system, when a signal within certain frequency region coincides electrically and structurally, the system becomes unstable because the energy is concentrated, and signal flux is interfered and distorted. For the instability, power integrity analysis should be conducted. To remove the signal distortion for MLB, using a high-frequency design technique for EMI phenomenon, EMI which radiates electromagnetic energy fluxed into power layer was analyzed considering system stabilization. In this paper, we proposed an adaptive MLB design method which minimizes high-frequency noise in MLB structure, enhances signal integrity and power integrity, and suppresses EMI. The characteristic impedance for multi-layer circuit board proposed in this study were High-Speed Video Differential Signaling(HSVDS) line width w = 0.203, line gap d = 0.203, beta layer height h = 0.145, line thickness t = 0.0175, dielectric constant ε_r = 4.3, and characteristic impedance Zdiff = 100.186Ω. When high-speed video differential signal interface board was tested with optimized parameters, the magnitude of Eye diagram output was 672mV, jittering was 6.593ps, transmission frequency was 1.322GHz, signal to noise was 29.62dB showing transmission quality improvement of 10dB compared to previous system.
